Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Hornet and Phantom. Enjoy the 3600-word chapter. I do not own Bleach, Tite Kubo and a few others do.
He hummed, tapping at his arms before the pain in his side seemed to be in more pain before he hummed to himself. this had been painful and annoying in equal measure. Still? There was more on the line than this, more on the line than some simple rage. It had been a chore for him not to push it… But it seemed he had to keep going if anything was going to change.
This was going to be a lot more interesting when it came to this. He dodged a slash that could have cut him in half before this was a lot worse before this was all of the time. there was a lot more to say and do before this was all said and done. All of the moves he had made had done nothing more than buying him some time… The time he seemed to have lived on little. He had to be smarter and better than this. He had to find a way around her defenses before she cut him to ribbons. He couldn't question what to do next.
It'd be a lot nicer as of the time being. a lot nice the anything he had nice as of the time being and something that needed to be done for the time being. there was a lot more to see and do as of the time being. He had much bigger fish to fry for now and that was obvious. There was a lot to question as of the time being.
There was so much on the line regarding this for the time being. nothing else had mattered as of now nor would it. there was simply nothing left to his ideas than this. He frowned as he realized the problem wasn't with his enemies… No. It had been with him before now. He questioned before now. this had been something as of the time being.
Still? if he was smart enough? He could handle this. The enemy hadn't yet made a fool of him entirely. Not yet.
Argimenus growled and smashed part of the table to pieces. Beaten by that pain in the ass reaper. If he had been just a few seconds faster he would have diced her into stew meat. It wasn't fair. It couldn't be fair… He had to have cheated to have won. That wasn't fair. Not fair at all.
The beast looked over his army. All of the Hollows who had been killed were replaceable. They could easily have been put back by the rest of his army.
"Failure…" He heard as he growled and raised one of his swords. "You are such a pathetic ruler. Losing to a washed-up soldier who couldn't do anything. If you hadn't been the one who had made the deal? We would have sliced you to ribbons… You will not get another chance to beat her." He also heard before growling.
He knew for a fact that the voice had not been stronger than him. They needed him as he needed them to defeat them. The war was going to be a lot more interesting as time went on. The game was going to be something for the ages whether or not he wanted it to be or not. It'd be something fun either way. He couldn't allow a washed-up reaper and their damn apprentice to stop his plan before it got off the ground. He had to be ready for any slight hiccups in his plan. He was not to be denied… And certainly not by a reaper and her little apprentice who meant nothing as of the second.
He had been a lot more as of the time being. It had been something that needed to be coming down to it. the problems at hand had been little more than a bother to him and he was ready to smash them to pieces under his heel before proceeding to march right through as of the second when it came down to it. This had been something that needed to be dealt with before it posed a threat to his goals.
Oh, would they pay at the end of the day, though? He'd track them both down and cut them into little pieces before it had been as of the second.
This had been a lot more fun to him when this had been done and dusted. The little things had been a pain in his side the time before now. Argimenus was a lot more interested in how to break them and tear them down for the time being. whatever little thing had been doing before it came down to it.
They'd pay no matter what and what he had to throw away for the time being. there would be more bloodshed for the time at now when he considered it. The only problem would be how to destroy them and kill them before they became a threat to his plans.
Still? What to do next before the plan had come to it. This had been an odd question to him and how to see and do this for the time being.
(With Riku and Sui Feng)
She had been a lot slower to catch onward before now. This had been something that needed to be dealt with as of the second before now. There was more to this as of the time being. She knew more than anything at the time. This had been something as of the time being.
Sui sat amid the pond rather than on the edge. Riku sat with her… Or rather, provided the cushion which she placated herself upon for the time being. This had been something that made her curious beyond measure. Yet? She didn't find it as curious as for the time being.
"Is it always this quiet?" Sui heard from Riku as she rolled her eyes to herself.
This was something odd on her mind and she had seen a lot worse in her time when it was done.
She felt her legs uncross slightly. It had been something that had been questioned for the time being. She knew more than anything he wasn't embarrassed by the type of position he was in. They had known one another enough to not find it odd as of the time being before he seemed to find some amusement and mirth in it.
This had been something odd for the moment while they slowly started to see and do next.
She looked at her friend which made him question what to do next. Sui looked down at her feet before she turned to look at him.
"Yes, it is," Sui said while she turned and looked around. "Why are you trying to sit in the middle of the pond like a fool?" Sui questioned while she tilted her head.
"Because you wanted to mediate and you sat in the middle of the water before me? Second? You're the one who tackled me into the water like this had been a wrestling match." Riku stated before he questioned himself.
He hummed to himself as he questioned what to tell her. The girl shifted only for a second. It had been something odd to them. She'd probably end up slicing him in half if he told anyone what had happened here. It had been something funny to him and he'd continue to find something odd and amusing inside of it for the time being.
The girl simply turned her head to the side before she looked out and over the bridge and then turned back to her friend.
"You are a fool. You will be a silly fool at day's end. I just want you to know that at the end of the day." Sui stated while Riku simply turned and looked around before he tilted his head.
The woman had been so thrown off by his attempts to skirt the issue and avoid what little she had been a lot more to handle as of the time being. Whatever this had been made him funnier.
"This was a lot weirder than I expected to be…. And I mean that with all due respect for the time being. You're being weird at the end of the day when all was said and done…" Riku stated as he laughed to himself with more and more mirth in his tone as he did so.
It wasn't as if he was annoyed by this. No, quite the obvious for now and that hadn't been subject to change for now. What he did know was that this was amusing. Oh, so damn amusing for now and not subject to any damn change for now. The idea had been intoxicating. It had been a vibrant little thing when this was all said and done. He knew better than to try and handle it for the second… It had been more than he could handle now the amusement for him was worth more than he could find for this… It'd be fun if not for the idea that he was slowly and it had been a lot funnier than it had been for a while. Whatever he had left in his body was telling him to keep going onwards before this was all said and done and he knew better than to just stop and lie down for now. What he knew was just how silly this would become if he didn't give himself a second to rest for now. She knew there would be violence over this either way and all would be done and dusted… Whatever little thing came next would be oh so much fun for them.
Still? It wasn't like she didn't deserve something for now. This had been a fight worth it for her even if she hadn't the ability to back down from it… And she knew more than anything how silly this had been for her.
Yet it was oh so funny for her and oh so interesting for her enemies. Whatever he had been able to relax with? It hadn't been something that needed to be handled.
"You are still an idiot, Riku," Sui said while she turned to look to the side before taping on her nose. "Secondly? I know for a fact that you aren't the same person you had been before now. What we know about him was just how dangerous he had been. Argimenus is the most dangerous soldier or monster who had graced the battlefields of this place. I'm not going to let him escape that easily… I cannot lie. I don't think we will defeat him as easily as you seem to think." Sui added before she clicked her tongue against the roof of her mouth.
There were a few seconds of silence. What he did know was she was overacting a little. The idea that she had been out of her depths had been something terrible for now sadly.
Still? He hadn't wanted to be the one who lied to her when all was done and dusted. The idea that this woman had been so thrown off by her surroundings that she needed to be constantly in the thick of it was tiring. There was so much to say and dusted for now.
"You are still the idiot who decided to sit in the middle of a lake," Sui stated as she hummed herself.
"And you decided to sit on my lap when it came down to it…" Riku said with a chuckle as he did so to me. "I thought most people end up usually sitting in water to meditate or something like that," Riku said as Sui snorted with a roll of her eyes as she decided that this would be more ridiculous than it'd been before now.
Still? whatever it could be next was surprising to her. She had decided a lot more to come down to this as of now.
It'd be an odd little gem. She laughed all the same at him before now. She snorted through her nose as she knew he was simply questioning what to do next. Whatever came next. It'd be an odd little thing for now.
"Only in those ridiculous human movies," Sui stated with a wry smile of her own at this. "Don't tell me you're slacking in your training just to sate your need for some small amount of entertainment? I thought you found this to be more amusing at the end of the day." Sui added to which he shrugged, rolling his arms.
Still? he'd be a lot less amused by this. Interested in how to force another laugh from her at the end of the day. Sui always seemed to bring a smile to his lips at the end of the day. It honestly seemed as if she had been thrown off before now…
If she wasn't lying? She'd probably admit she found this to be fun for now as of now. Sui had been a lot more curious when this had been decided what to do next. Whatever came next? He found it to be more enjoyable than she had been.
It was something laughable about this was to question what her move was done and dusted. This had been a lot more interesting as of now. This had been an odd little for now.
He cracked his fingers and looked around the pond. Things had fallen silent for a while as of this moment. He knew more than anything. It'd be a cool little thing for now. Whatever came down to it. This would be a cool little thing before now. Before he had been done and dusted, he'd find a new way to enjoy this as of the time being.
He had rolled his eyes despite himself. She leaned back on his lap before she questioned now. She had been a lot more focused as of now. It had been a lot more peaceful… And she had to poke at his nose despite how it had been a few seconds as of the time being. Riku knew despite himself that this had been something odd for now…. If he hadn't the ability to flick his hand at her hand as of now.
Sui could only roll his eyes at the insanity and sheer stupidity of it. She knew he was messing with her at the end of the day. Any smart soldier could tell just how much she had been trying to get inside of his head when all of this was said and done. It'd be a crazy little thing to admit for now. He was honestly oddly thrown off by now despite how crazy it had been, despite his reservations for now. it had been an odd little thing before now.
It had been an odd little thing before it as of the second. It had been a lot more to handle this as of now. Whatever came next? He had been an interesting little warrior when it came down to it. There was a lot more to this than she had found it to be. Whatever came next? They'd find as of the second before he questions what to do next.
What came next was to be something cool. She wanted to know more about her friend for now. It had been an odd little thing when it came down while nod before he was an odd little thing.
"You're going to sit there for a while, aren't you?" Sui questioned to which he seemed to nod. "Honestly? I sometimes wonder if you're insane for now. Sometimes, I don't know what to do now for the time being." Sui added to which Riku questioned what to tell her, honestly? It seemed to be thrown off, for now, thrown off by every single little thing.
"Honestly? Sometimes I don't know what will happen next if we don't get all the power… I know just how bad things will be if that monster gets his power back and whatever will come next." Riku said as she sighed, stretching out her legs.
He could only clear his throat, curious as to what her move was, she drummed her fingers together and sighed, and looked up at the sky before the second.
Still? he had been all thrown off. She crossed her arms across her chest, her feet pooling in the water under her as she did so. This had been an odd little thing. She laughed despite herself and looked down at the ground before she seemed to tilt her head before it came down.
She knew for now that this had been before as of the second. Whatever came next had made this weird. She smiled despite herself and poked at him with her fingers, curious as to what to as of now. It had been an odd little thing for now. What came next would be cool.
Still? He had a lot more to question before it seemed to be. Still? There was a lot more to this as of the second and whatever was going to be cool for them. She had to be ready for it.
"Are you going to be, ok? There was a lot more to try and understand and I don't know for another time. It will be cool to go through this." Sui was oddly to question before all of this was to do before now.
As of now? He seemed to be a lot more to handle for now. It had been an odd little thing before now. This was odd to question as of the second.
She stayed calm all things considered. It wasn't as was all too thrown off by this. It'd simply be too weird now. Whatever came next would be oddly a point of life he could no longer deal with… The idea had been something crazy/
Whatever came next before it was all over before now. It had been weird and insane at the same time and yet neither seemed to find anything wrong with this. It had been something before as of to question before now. This was odd to weird when it came down to it.
Yet if he was honest? This was probably going to get odd to him fairly quickly.
He questioned for now at the second when this was odd to happen before now. Whatever was to come next to come as of now? It'd probably be less than for the time.
He turned to look at her as she sat on his lap, all too curious now what to do now. It'd be an odd little thing for now if they were to be lucky. Whatever the next move it was? He was a lot more interested in the next move than anything else.
"You still intend to fight that beast even if he is too strong to stop?" Sui questioned to which her friend turned to look as of now.
She rolled her eyes and tucked her feet in as she gazed at her friend. It had been the weirdest thing for them despite their best efforts to stay silent.
"Yes. I do." Sui heard as she sighed. "I know I might die. That's part of being part of this division." Sui stated to herself as she sighed to himself.
He had been a lot odder. This entire game was to be something odd for now. What little he had a lot more to question for now. It had been something to handle for now. Whatever came next before to question this.
She knew he'd be a lot more surprised for now. It questioned a lot more to handle before it was oddly something for the end of the day… And he questioned What she'd do if she came somewhere for the history books.
"If that's what it takes to win this? I'd gladly put myself in the fire… At least then I might…" Riku said while he rolled his eyes. "Why? You are still made for it and you know more than we do. That makes you more important than we need to handle this as of now. I don't want to fight if we need to yet. All we need to do is attack the rest of them and hope it gets done and dusted." Hao said with a frown to himself.
It wasn't exactly an interesting case of something he could understand for now. it was to be something odder than what he had dealt with before. The only problem would be how they reacted to this. It'd be a little odd of a thing for now if it came down to it. Whatever came next would be a lot of odd things for this. Whatever came next would be an odd little thing for now… it seemed as if something would be coming to this at any blasted point of their lives or such.
And it would be a lot weirder than this could possibly be.
